change demands
breaking apart and disappearances
to miraculously reveal a new whole
Sometimes
Waking Dream
morning came
but my dreamscape
lingered on the window
Tendrils
its the small touch
and little kindnesses
that bind us together
A Map Of Time
every line and mar
documenting
the leaf’s life
Flames
afternoon light
cattail candles
set the marsh aglow
In Outlines
tracing time
and its
continuous expansion
Heaven At Your Feet
reach down
and touch
treetops and the sky
To Thy Own Self
a leaf revealed
in the decomposing bark
spirit endures
Surface Of The Moon
the rabbit
and the old man
disappeared down a Swiss cheese hole
Protection
barrier to cold
a bowl to hold the sun
oak leaves holding on to green
Ways Of Water
still flowing
but slower
still drawing
with sunlight
Needles, Leaves, Reeds
the wind weaves
a tapestry
of elements and time
Always
the two at once
joy and sorrow
and the search for ways
to befriend both
Call And Respond
from leaves
to ripples
color echos
Pulmonaria A La Pollock
drips and splatter
that intentional yellow line
nature’s abstract expressionism
A New Galaxy Appeared
in the puddle’s universe
Saturns abound
rings need no moon
Morning Dew
I can almost see time
accumulating
in the blades of grass
World Within A World
the garden
abstracted by rain
a new understanding of interconnectedness
Allium Sparklers
each seed suspended
on a stream of light
beauty bursts
Promise
on the broken branch
in the ice
verdant thriving
Tulips Beginning
an abstraction
of themselves
leaves bloom like petals
Seen And Seen Again
birch in the sun
are echoed as
icicles in shade
Satellite
receiving instructions
from last summer
on future destinations
Nor’easter
a flurry of falling stars
in blizzard time
there is no night or day
Spring Dream
new life
hatched and feathered
in sunshine and blue sky
Apparitions Of Spring
like garden ghosts
leaves appear
upon the icy window
Physics At The Brook’s Edge
if time itself could be seen
this is how it would appear
stopped and moving all at once
A River Seal Revealed
sniffing the air
perched on the birch stump
surprise visit from a fin-footed friend
An Artist At Work
each underwater stroke
ripples the surface
new abstractions of reflections
Made On The Maple
each texture
a distinct form of life
together creating a new universe
